FREE Streaming Chinese TV

Post by animetama » Aug 8th, '05, 05:29

http://www.pplive.com/

1. Download and Install the Program.
2. Run Program
3. You need Windows Media Player 9 or later.
4. There will be an icon running in your taskbar - right click on it and choose the third option from the bottom. This will change the font to English.
5. Select a channel and start the player.

Enjoy!
:)

ps. I am watching badminton on CCTV-5

oooh, thank you!!

and this reminds me, anyone have FunTV? it`s like a MV thing for your computer, and it downloads music videos for you automatically everytime you turn on your computer... but sucky thing is, it only shows some of the MV, not the whole thing.

but check it out @ http://www.funtv.com.tw :lol

ooh, and if you already know about it, tell me what you think about it, i really enjoy it :-)

and don't forget to set your player... asf->WinMediaPlayer
rm->real player

Source means the other computer that supply/share the bit stream data to you. When there are no enough source, then u will not get the program ...

set your player in config (right click the pplive icon near your windows clock, and choose config, config player path)

Hope this help.... :D

Hm...I was just wondering..

When ever I try to connect I either get a message that says check server, channel has left or this one....

Windows Media Player cannot play the file because a network error occurred. The server might not be available. Verify that you are connected to the network and that your proxy settings are correct.

Can someone tell me what that means???

I'm getting the same message. Does this mean the party is over? Do we need to delete the application from our desktop or is this just temporary?

Hi, I finally get pheonix channel to work.
I'm very new here so i'm sorry if I ask silly question.

1. Where can I find program schedule? Like what program on what time?
2. What is the best channel for me if I'm interested in variety program or talk show?
3. Is there any mandarin program from Taiwan in the listing?

Again, i'm new and out of touch with mandarin program. I'm very excited to be able to watch this again.

Thank you.

Here's another site that lets you watch chinese tv.

http://watch.squidtv.net/010302asia1h-01china.html

pros: no installation required.

cons: may not work on some computers, depending on your internet speed.

enjoy.
